A bit of a lisp after a little bump with a mud bank, the tow eye has been pushed up, it'll get looked at over the winter.

I got the lisp at Lotton, ages ago.

But at Lydden I did race Tim Jeffrey in his A610, bearing in mind it is one of his "home " tracks and I had never been there before, over a lap and 3 quarters, 90 odd seconds, I was just 1 second behind.... and getting closer..

You probablyu stopped just in time, used to race there quite a lot, a great little track, but over confidence gets punished in Paddock bend.... wouldn't be at all surprised if you saw someone go off there when you were sprinting?

Well done by the way! :P
